Lake Ridge Bank Announces Changes to Board of Directors

Welcomes Tiffany Scheller, bids farewell to Krantz and Gannon

Lake Ridge Bank and its holding company, Lake Ridge Bancorp Inc., welcome Tiffany Scheller to the Board of Directors for each organization, effective May 29. Her appointment efficiently rounds out the expertise and leadership on the Boards after the retirement of two long-time Directors, Ron Krantz and Tom Gannon.

Scheller is Vice President of Finance at Findorff, one of the leading construction companies in the Midwest as they build more than $800 million in projects annually. She graduated Summa Cum Laude with a bachelor’s degree in accounting from Georgia State University and has completed additional programs at Leadership Buckhead and The Leader’s Lyceum, both aimed at developing executive leadership skills and vision. She brings more than 25 years of trusted leadership experience in finance and accounting, along with extensive knowledge regarding real estate and construction.

“We are excited to add Tiffany to our team of experts on the Board of Directors guiding our bank into the future,” says Lake Ridge Bank CEO Jim Tubbs. “This is a time of great opportunity in the financial marketplace for Lake Ridge Bank, and I’m confident that Tiffany’s leadership experience and reputation for improving processes, creating efficiencies, and effectively communicating and explaining complex financial topics will make her a valuable contributor to our bank’s success.”

Scheller joins the Boards as two long-standing Directors announce their retirement from service.

Ron Krantz was a founding Board member of Middleton Community Bank before it was acquired by Monona Bank and eventually became part of Lake Ridge Bank. As owner of meat wholesaler UW Provisions, Inc., Krantz has been actively involved in the Middleton business community and the Dane County region for more than 50 years, dedicating his service to growing a vibrant place for families to enjoy.

Tom Gannon has helped guide the direction of the bank for nearly 35 years, first as part of Monona Bank’s Board of Directors and continuing as a Director for Lake Ridge Bancorp Inc. Gannon is the owner and President of Gannon Construction Company, as well as owner of Gannon Company—Realtor, both headquartered in McFarland. As a graduate of the University of Wisconsin with degrees in civil engineering and construction administration, he brought a valuable mix of technical expertise and entrepreneurship to Board discussions.

“We have been fortunate to benefit from decades of exceptional leadership by both Ron Krantz and Tom Gannon,” Tubbs shares. “We especially appreciate their continuity of service throughout the merger and their legacy knowledge of both institutions to ensure the ongoing success of Lake Ridge Bank. We can’t thank them enough for their visionary mentorship over the years.”
